Stop the eviction: 4 months of rent for Siti's family in Semarang
A cut in working hours left Siti short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.
🇮🇩 Semarang, Central Java, Indonesia688 views
When the call centre closed in August, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a final eviction notice was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $600.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave.
I have three school-aged children at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
I have started working weekend shifts, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $600 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $510
• Utilities in arrears: $25
• Late fees and court costs: $65
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Siti.
Praying for you. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Quezon City.
so sorry you're going through this. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon!
gave what I could, wish it was more. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
hope things get better soon, Siti. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up
good luck. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care
Good luck, Siti. Shared this with my family.
You're not alone, Siti. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We're a small family in Miami but we're thinking of you.
thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours.
Wishing you peace, Siti. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Semarang.
Sending good thoughts, Siti. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Nashik so I could bring a meal.
You're not alone, Siti. Hope this works out for you. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
